Chapter 1976 Dengzhou Haishi's eldest sister, the home of the mother worm and sick Weichi
Jingdong East Road, Penglai, Dengzhou Government Office.
As a shipping transit hub located in the northern part of the Shandong Peninsula, close to the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea, and across the sea from the northeastern coast of the North China Plain, Jinzhou, Liaoyang Prefecture, and even the Korean Peninsula, it was originally closer to the Liaoning border.
The Song Dynasty explicitly prohibited ships from entering Dengzhou from the sea, which made Banqiao Town, Mizhou, where Xiao and Tang Dynasty escorts went, become the largest trading port for overseas shipping in the North. However, now the territory of the former Liao Dynasty, Jingdong Road in the Song Dynasty
All were owned by the Qi Dynasty. The Xiaotang Dynasty had issued an imperial edict very early. While maintaining the status of the Maritime Shipping Department of Mizhou City, the Dengzhou Sea was set up according to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to enter Goryeo, Bohai Road, and Dengzhou Penglai also opened a market.
The Shipping Department will also serve as a trading port north of the Yangtze River, and the customs town will be developed and revitalized.
After a period of development, merchant ships from Japan, Korea and other countries have also been plying between Dengzhou City's shipping companies. Traders gathered at the port branch and there were many ships. The maritime trade in Dengzhou territory also quickly became full of vitality.
, the coastal city was prosperous and prosperous because of the sea market. Merchants gathered there, and the city was bustling with merchants and travelers going north and south. Gentlemen wearing all kinds of brocade clothes were everywhere outside, and merchants gathered in several places in the city.
The place where you go is even more noisy and lively.
However, although the current situation is stable under the rule of Dongdong Road in the Qi Dynasty, usually the more prosperous the place, the more and more people of three religions and nine sects will hang out there. But now, there are still some urban foxes and rogues.
When the eldest sister who used to hang out in the Japanese tunnels returned to her hometown, she was immediately shocked to the point where the small group of traitors disappeared. Even though there were still some snake gods and cow ghosts who were still doing evil things with bad intentions secretly.
If this thing is discovered by this eldest sister, it will definitely not be easy...
In a busy market on Penglai East Street in Dengzhou, the door of a closed-door wine shop suddenly exploded. Two men howled and flew backwards, and then seventeen or eight more rogue boys stumbled and dodged.
Wailing, the remaining man with a face full of flesh and a plaster on his forehead was also rolling around, but was kicked over by the woman who caught up immediately.
And the woman was born with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a fat face and a fat waist. At this time, her eyes were full of violence and her expression was angry, but this was not the reason why she opened a hotel in Shilipai outside the east gate of Dengzhou, killed cattle and gambled, and then rescued her.
The brothers of the Jie family, who instigated a few heroes in Dengzhou to escape prison and defected to Xiaotang, and now, many years later, she has become one of the founding heroes of the Qi Dynasty, Mrs. Gu?
Although the evil man who was trampled under the feet of Mrs. Gu was vicious, at this moment he was like a mouse in front of a cat, just wailing and begging for mercy. But Mrs. Gu was still unambiguous and raised her feet to cover her.
The guy kicked him hard several times and yelled: "Li Laowu! You are such a scumbag, you just don't use your official status to pressure you. I was walking around the borders of Dengzhou back then. How dare any brother on the road dare to do so?"
Will you make trouble in front of our husband and wife? Now the rules and regulations of the Penglai casino in Dengzhou are decided by my brother... Well, the official inspection has already been decided. You still dare to make money under my nose.
That dirty money? It’s going to ruin my reputation, so why shouldn’t I teach you how to look good? Children, beat me to death!”
Sister-in-law Gu said sternly, then she picked up the whistle stick in her hand and hit the man named Li Laowu again. At any rate, Sister-in-law Gu also knew that this was not a man who was fighting with the enemy on the battlefield, and the Qi Dynasty finally ruled
She couldn't break the law of fighting, so she didn't use the two knives she used to chop randomly, but with just whistles, sticks, fists and kicks, she beat the evil man to pieces, and he kept wailing. Then he suddenly rushed out of the store door.
There were seven or eight able-bodied men, all of whom were assisted by Mrs. Gu's subordinates. At this time, they heard the order and rushed forward, grabbed the rogue idle men who could not dodge, pinned them to the ground, and beat them again!
The man named Li Laowu rolled around and begged for mercy, while shouting loudly: "Sister Gu family, I hope you will forgive me! This villain has eaten the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard, how can he dare to slander the name of the eldest sister?"
Although the young ones gather some people to play dice and gamble for money, it is just for fun, but they dare not open a shop for gambling. Even if they borrow some silver taels to borrow gambling funds, it is just a matter of mutual consent, seeking some profit-making benefits, and just making a living.
, This way it didn’t ruin the eldest sister’s wealth!”
"Bah! Now, how dare you, a little bitch, to prevaricate with words! The gambling house opened by my mother is approved by the government, and it is only a business for overseas merchants and wealthy businessmen to make a living by gambling. The territory of Dengzhou
, but for all bad gamblers, one number counts as the number one, and I remember it all clearly. Those who are red-eyed after gambling and want to recoup their money, or even pawn their property, wives and children, dare to step into my gambling house.
Half a step, he will be beaten with a stick straight away!
You secretly engaged in gambling and money-lending (a term used in the original Water Margin to refer to lending money in casinos). You have already harmed many people, and you have also lured some stupid people to come to our casino to play money.
, I don’t have a bad reputation, but I still want to deny it, even if I beat you to death, it would be light!”
The more Mrs. Gu spoke, the angrier she became. She used her fists and kicks, and called out with a whistle and baton, which landed directly on Li Laowu with a "Boom!" sound. The people on the East Street of Penglai City who had been shouting and making noise because of the fight in the market looked at him.
Sister-in-law Gu was on the street to deal with the thugs, but she calmed down. Everyone just watched. Some neighbors even moved out a small pony to sit down, or squatted on the ground to watch Sister-in-law Gu and a few of her followers beat her up.
This gang of scoundrels actually watched it with gusto, and whispered to each other about Sister-in-law Gu's skills...
After getting along for a while, although Sister-in-law Gu is now running the Nuo Da Gambling House in Penglai, Dengzhou, which is the only one recognized by the Qi Dynasty, it is true that she almost only gambles with wealthy businessmen and even many foreign maritime merchants (according to the
Xiao Tang thought about it. In addition to the common practices such as Guanpu that were popular in the Song Dynasty, gambling habits among the people were regulated under the Qi Dynasty. However, the gambling houses set up in Dengzhou were also slightly similar to the businesses allowed in a certain special zone in later generations, and they could also play a role to a certain extent.
It can play a role in promoting the economic development of Shibosi area, but it does not apply to other state capitals and counties, and regulations still have to be formulated as appropriate). Ordinary people will inevitably have people gathering for gambling in private. However, whenever businessmen come and go,
If you want to try your luck, you must also comply with the citations required by the shipping officer when you enter the gambling house, such as asking for the goods to be delivered, verifying the name book, not pawning goods, counting the property, betting seven and leaving three... etc.
General laws and regulations should be followed to eliminate as much as possible the possibility that some people will not only lose all their money or even go bankrupt due to gambling.
As for the official loans in the Song Dynasty, there were Jiaoziwu and Huiziwu, and the private ones also had Jiaozipu and Qianyinpu. The lenders called them the money owners and treasury households, and then the private sector made loans and borrowed debts, using land deeds. Land deeds, gold and silverware...even wives and daughters can be used as mortgages. Now, according to Qi Dynasty laws, not only has the regulation of wives and daughters being pledged for loans been abolished, but government-run controls have also been strengthened, and the borrower's money and material expenses must be reviewed at the boundaries of Dengzhou. The process is even more stringent, and it is also due to the need to avoid bad gamblers who still cannot afford to lose, so they jealously borrow money to recoup their losses, and end up being heavily in debt and affecting their families.
Although Sister-in-law Gu has a fierce temperament, she strictly abides by Xiao Tang's instructions. Although there are still gambling houses, the folk atmosphere in Dengzhou is better than before. Even if the government is strict, there are people everywhere making a living in gambling overtly and covertly, and dragons and snakes are everywhere. Mixed together, there are always those who are addicted to gambling and cheating the villagers. She is indeed a hero among women who supports the weak like a mother and punishes the evil like a tiger. Not only does she never use her power to bully ordinary people, she even goes to the borders of the state. If any scoundrels show up, she will definitely jump out and stand up for the people. Although she will inevitably have to be escorted to the government in the end, she will have to be taught a lesson by the mother in advance. Of course, it is inevitable... ..
It seems that Li Laowu, who fell into the hands of Sister Gu today, is also a street gangster who came to Dengzhou when he saw the growing prosperity. He secretly gambled and lavished money with the idea of lucky, and also lured many gamblers and then tricked him. As a trick, Sister-in-law Gu found out about this matter, and naturally without saying anything, she immediately came to destroy this guy's situation.
So at this time, Sister-in-law Gu held down Li Laowu, who had already been resented by some people in Penglai, Dengzhou, on the long street. The onlookers cheered and applauded.
However, Sister-in-law Gu was just beating her up in front of her, when she suddenly heard someone shouting in a helpless tone: "Madam, you are also the imperial wife after all, so in such a large public... you can't be more thoughtful." ?”
